Metroid Prime got some impressive tech for it's time: 1. Ragdoll physics 2. Fullscreens shader effects 3. Shadowmaps that get proyected over the characters (not until Unreal Engine 3 did that become standard).
Exactly, and funny enough, my co-worker just told me a few days ago that GameCube's graphics and technical prowess sucked compared to Ps2...I practically choked on my own saliva lol
Though for the Xbox 360 and ps3 there are 60FPS games that are not even close to full hardware usage. An example for both consoles is Dante's Inferno or for the X360 only, Bayonetta.
back in the day, any magazine mention the impresive technical achivement that F-zero GX was, I'm a gamer since the SNES and Sega Genesis generation, but my favorite home console it's the Gamecube
Believe it or not, Starfox Adventures is the most graphically intense GameCube game, if we are tallking about graphics alone I mean. That game looks better than not only its own generation games, but better than most 3rd party xbo6360/PS3 games, which is pretty impressive, given the hardware gap. I dare you to find me a 360 or PS3 title with as high a resolution texture for things like fur, water and deep color. Mind you I've only ever played it on Nintendo made progressive scan component cables and in wide screen. British developer RaRe squeezed every last drop of juice out of the cube, before being sold to Microsoft to develop 2 launch party titles for the 360. A different developer worked on the GameCube sequel "Starfox Assault", which released in 2004, 2 years later than SF Adventures and it looks far inferior to the latter. It has very good aerial missions. Just be prepared to yawn during the land missions.
Looking for graphics the game Wwe Day Of Reckoning 2 is amazing and it is an exclusive for gamecube, that game can rival and beat the gameplay of modern wrestling games while having some of the most if not the most accurate wrestler models
Strongly agree with Metroid prime. That game was ahead of it's time. I think twilight princess was also a game that pushed the GameCube to it's limits.
Sega did the development for F Zero GX and also F Zero AX for the arcade halls. The arcade hardware is based on GameCube HW called the Naomi board and was a collab between Nintendo Sega and Namco.
RookerVision - Gaming Videos Honestly, I would already be happy if they ported F-Zero GX to the switch, with some online functionality and a bump in resolution from 480i or p, I forgot what it ran in with the component cable.
Super Mario Sunshine has on demand dynamic reflections (as in the puddles FLUDD makes), and the way fluids interact with the world and eachother is just amazing (and hardly seen elsewhere).
@@Brando01 0_o. Your retro games stores sucks. The ones in my city sell theres from anywhere from $60, depending on their conditions. Mostly around $10 to $20.
Love your videos! They are made with such passion and fun it shows man! Keep up the good work and don't forget we want to see more side by sides too! Take care!
fair list favorite 5games blast graphics on gamecube, anoter amazing games i love was: viewtifull joe , resident evil4, starfox adventure, zelda twinlight pricess and wind maker, resident evil zero, metal gear twin snake(that last pushed so much sometimes have slowdowns )..Lol
I loved my GameCube and mine was black.. I thought Resident Evil 0 looked amazing on it and would have been a great game to include among some of the best looking on GC
Might try some of those games on my Wii, brilliant first party lineup! For 3rd Party titles that pushed GCN, it's deffo worth mentioning True Crime LA & NYC, as they're easily the largest open worlds for the system - TCLA is a whopping 240 sq. miles and TCNY isn't too far off I think - I don't think any other game for the GC or even Wii even come close to this! Also NFS Underground 2 and Most Wanted could probably make that list!
In case someone reads this, super mario sunshine can run at 60 fps on the GameCube if you find a way to enable a cheat code. (Action replay or through nintendont on the Wii). It only works with the USA version, but if you want to try... 👀 (Use with action replay on GameCube or nintendont on Wii/Wiiu) 044167B8 3F600000
I played Mario Sunshine for about 15mins and after that... i wondered why did that game exist? Luigi's Mansion was just as bad though. However, Rogue Squadron 2 is hands down the only 10/10 and i still think its the best star wars game thats been made and even for the time and currently, it was and is a technical marvel that i believe really pushed gamecube to the limit.
I hope you realize that doing these videos means that you'll eventually end up doing a collab with Minimme.... Please make it happen.... Edit: Also, I've seen many graphically impressive lists and one thing that people forget to consider is rendering resolution. Even though the console outputs a 480i or 480p signal that doesn't mean that the game is actually rendering in that resolution. Most of the time console games render in a much lower resolution than the output signal. For some games, knowing the rendering resolution could make them that much more impressive.
@@RookerVision Thanks for the reply man! It's good to hear that you two are in touch. And I appreciate you listening to my suggestion. I'll be looking forward to the future! Keep up the great work!
I’ve owned meteoroid for gc for years and still not played it to this day 🙈 own but not played gc Luigi mansion but I have and play on my 3ds, not got f zero, played my Mario sunshine for like 10 minutes years ago 🙈, I own all the mario parties with the mic as well.
This is a great video. Im loving these new list videos! Unrelated but whatever happened to Sarsepeep? His channel has completely gone. I really liked his RUclips videos. :/
Pro Skater 4 should've been on this list. Also, anyone remember PacMan Fever? P.S. RookerVision, your hashtags for this video say best ps3 games instead of best GameCube games.
In Luigi's Mansion no one ever mentions it so I must be a freak but do u need to learn to control it a bit when starting? Cause I jumped in like most Mario games and damn I got so stuck. Did not know how to control shit. I gave it such a go but I just got frustrated and left it but everyone says how gd it is over n over so I might have to revisit and practice a bit. I dunno, it was the controls definitely. The mechanics too maybe but I couldn't workout how to catch the ghosts or something. Like I played it for a while and when I did get past a bit it was by fluke. I had no idea what I was doing.
Metroid Prime got some impressive tech for it's time:
1. Ragdoll physics
2. Fullscreens shader effects
3. Shadowmaps that get proyected over the characters (not until Unreal Engine 3 did that become standard).
Really was.
In a console without pixel shaders.
The lighting looked really good for its time, and Samus' model still looks so good, even by today's standards. I think it had almost 10K polygons.
Exactly, and funny enough, my co-worker just told me a few days ago that GameCube's graphics and technical prowess sucked compared to Ps2...I practically choked on my own saliva lol
@@retrosoul8770 the.PS2 could do amazing stuff too. Look at all the tech in Shadow of the Colossus (shame on the performance in that game, though).
PC gamers: You will never reach 60FPS.
Me, a PC and console gamer: MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE!!!
Lmao. Hahaha
me too

Yeah fzero gx is crazy
I’m probably the only one who played at that time only on pc, my parents didn’t allowed me to have a console because i was addicted to gaming

I have this game and is fantastic!
Viva Pinata gives me Starfox vibes, albeit you're right for the hardware gap it doesn't look that much better.
Well I’d say it looks more like an early Xbox 360 game
But for its time, pretty impressive
It looks really good but not the way you described it the ps3 and 360 have games that looks scary realistic

I was 5 when it came out my dad got for me release date I was surprised that kept his word
That's great
I bought 1 for my son, one for my stepson on launch...was so skint I didn’t get mine for 6 months
Nice one. Long live the GameCube!
Im totally unexpected that for the span of 2 videos, 10 games, still no Soul Calibur.
Totally surprised.
Stay tuned...................
SoulCalibur 2 is a multiplat, these lists should have exclusive games imo
360p army!
btw, rouge squadron was graphically impressive, even today imo
I looked at the models for the ships, they are nearly 50,000 polygons each
Xbox360 rise of the tomb raider its awesome and impressive
I'll check it out
@@RookerVision thx u brother
Sega did the development for F Zero GX and also F Zero AX for the arcade halls. The arcade hardware is based on GameCube HW called the Naomi board and was a collab between Nintendo Sega and Namco.
Those "Guess the game" bits won me over, subscribed, excellent videos.
gotta like how the launchtitle for the gamecube already pushes it to *_MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE_*
I love Mario Party and Mario Kart Double Dash on the Nintendo GameCube
Great games
We haven’t seen a new F-Zero game in almost 16 years, I feel old and sad now. Amazing video again.
Thank you. Yeah having no new fzero is crazy
RookerVision - Gaming Videos Honestly, I would already be happy if they ported F-Zero GX to the switch, with some online functionality and a bump in resolution from 480i or p, I forgot what it ran in with the component cable.
When you making the best multi platform games for ps3
Good list idea. Eventually
Super Mario Sunshine has on demand dynamic reflections (as in the puddles FLUDD makes), and the way fluids interact with the world and eachother is just amazing (and hardly seen elsewhere).
That's awesome. Thanks for sharing.
All Metroid games on GameCube were exception. Honestly I forgot about prime until this video
They were great
Your videos are addictive. Can't believe you don't have 100k subs
This console produced a lot of games that look just like today's games
Zelda ww, Zelda tp, MGS twin snakes, paper mario, RE4, soulcalibur 2.
This channel gets better every video!
Thank you. Means a lot
Mortal Kombat Deception looks pretty good on GameCube
It dosent look good even for a gamecube game.
Yeah, I'll check it out
I was 05 but I played most of this through my childhood
I wish that I could play all of these games but GameCube games are pretty expensive the only one I have that is on the list is Luigi’s Mansion
0_o. GameCube games are really cheap. Just go to a retro games store
MarvelGeek117 the retro game stores around me sell GameCube games for over 40 dollars sometimes and I’m not paying that much

Thank you so much. Means a ton
Metroid prime 2 was actually my favorite gamecube game hope they put all 3 games on switch before prime 4 comes out
I'm sure you'll see them in HD eventually
Prime 4 might be delayed yet again they do and dont want to make it they r afraid of ruining the series so its still a 50 50 chance on it
@@owensager2180 yeah I know they had restart development because they didn't like what bandi namco was doing
Luigis manson still looks gorgeous in 2020
Luigi's Mansion
Metroid Prime 2
Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2
F-Zero GX
Super Mario Sunshine
I had a GameCube and I played a lot of True Crime: Streets of LA and 007: Agent Under Fire
True Crime was fun
Love my GameCube. Nice video.

Good channel really good. Well done BRAVO you just got yourself a new fan not the right side of the video but a real one lol. Subscribed
To this day I have no idea how they made star wars look and run so amazing. Its a freaking 3rd Party launch title! Absolute witchcraft

Will take a look at them. Thank you
Too bad true crime is a buggy unfinished mess of a game.
Nearly perfect Video 🤘
Resident evil 0 should be on this list
Future list
Amazing how capable the GameCube and Wii U were, but how poor marketing killed these consoles compared to Sony's counterparts.
This guy reminds me of Chester Bennington.
lol.. I don't know why, but I hear this all the time. I really disagree.
Thinking the exact same thing! 😂
You just got a new sub like your videos keep it up

It boggles my mind the fact that F-zero series died with this installment.
I feel like f zero was always Nintendo’s overlooked racing game and was overshadowed by Mario kart
Do 5 PS1 games that pushed hardware limits to OVER 9000.
Resident Evil 4 and Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes.

Developer push 60FPS instead of HD in Gamecube Era and Nowadays they just focus on 4K 30FPS,I mean FHD+60FPS will be much more fun for game.
I think Resident Evil 4 and Eternal Darkness were amazing
The Purple Purse has a calculator in it.
Yeyeyeyeah luigis mansion 😎😀
I'd definitely say twilight princess is one and maybe even time splitters future perfect!
Twilight princess was on his last GameCube video dude..... Probably should have checked there before you said that.
That's on Part 1.
It's not silver. It's PLATINUM!
This is a great video. Im loving these new list videos! Unrelated but whatever happened to Sarsepeep? His channel has completely gone. I really liked his RUclips videos. :/

Yes it used mode 7 on snes predating it by a generation.
F zero GX was done with Sega too.
great video

Mario sunshine have uncap FPS? DF check it and Mario on gamecube is locked in solide 30 fps.
